Well like I said, I paid $5 more for this one. And for people without a whole bunch of money at the moment (like yours truly), yeah, the $5 would be kinda worth it. But I get your point.

I doubt any clerk would give me a discount like that anyways, they're not too bright here. I mean that as in, I'll explain the situation, and they'll be "Tarantini? Oh ok, so Plant Tear? We don't have that one in stock. Try the one downtown."

I'm just aggrivated because I paid the extra $5, thinking I would get it back for Planet Terror. You win some, you lose some, unfortunately, I always seem to be in the latter.

Or is it a lost cause and essentially another disadvantage of living in the glorious province that is Quebec? You could go plead your case and depending on the clerk you may get some kind of discount towards PT, but is doing all that and the time involved really worth $5? I was actually surprised to see the $5 coupon in the package to be honest since--unlike the regular edition--the Steelbooks do not explicitly say there is a coupon included.

Don't know about other retailers, but the Best Buy Steelbook version has a third disc, plus with either release there's a $5 off coupon for Planet Terror. Ah, cool, thanks. It's Future Shop doing it up here, but they're essentially the same. Website is awful though, so it's impossible to know what the extras are (even for the regular edition.) Thanks, much appreciated.

Well I'm thoroughly pissed... There's no coupon with my DVD. Plus it semi-advertises four poster cards on the packaging (doesn't explicitly say they are included, but why would there be pictures of them?), and it's just empty on the inside.

Whatever, it's only $5, but it's the principle dammit... I paid $5 more for this one.

And while joke/sarcastic answers are alwaus being spewed about lately, I'd really appreciate an actual answer, sooner rather than later. Thanks.

Death Proof releases this Tuesday. I have decided that I am going to get it, and Planet Terror (when it comes out next month)

Now, I want to get the steelbook, but it's $5 more than the "standard edition" so far. Is there anything exclusive to the steelbook editions a la "The Departed" (postcards)? Or is it just $5 for the steelbook itself (which is a bloody ripoff because "Departed" and "300" cost the same no matter which edition it was)?
